If You Had a Big Red Button - Would You Push It?

[AnOminous]

Sometimes, I have weird, dark fantasies. This is because I am a gigantic faggot.

However, imagine this. Suppose you had a big red button and you could push it. It would instantly eliminate the entire human race as well as you. Would you push it? And if not, why not? What is wrong with you?

At least at this moment, I wouldn't, but I can't explain why. I'd also beg to have the button taken away from me, because if I had it at all times, I eventually would push it.

Seriously, though, think about this planet without humans on it. I think it would immediately improve. Imagine the candidates to replace humanity as the supreme sapient species. We have elephants, who are incredibly altruistic even across species lines, mourn their dead, and are in most respects the moral superiors of humans. We have dolphins, who are really cute, well, okay they're also incredible perverts and rapists, maybe they aren't the best support for this getting rid of humans argument.

And then there are raccoons, well, they're pretty cute but they're also kind of the gypsies of all animals.

Anyway, humans are shit. But if we got rid of humans, would the replacement be any less shit? I mean, I think elephants probably are the moral superior of humans, but would they actually win out in the thunderdome that would happen if all humans instantly disappeared?

Also anyway. I'd push the button but only if I got to witness the results. Fuck humanity. Worst species ever.

I wouldn't press it for the simple fact all animals in human care pets, zoo, sanctuary, aquarium, ETC would starve without a way to escape

if the button erased all human presence and made sure the animals were safe i would

I'd push it once the elite begin to reveal themselves and enslave us all, to put us out of our collective misery. But I wouldn't normally ONLY because there are animals that depend on humanity for survival - endangered animals, pets, and so forth.

Name one thing that dolphins and elephants have invented.

Seemed appropriate.

Buttons are for fags. Only way to solve these problems, knife fights al a West Side Story.

 

[Anon_Fluoride]

I would take apart the button to see how it works

 

[A Welsh Cake]

Why would it affect me though?

Either way I’m pushing it because Octopi will be able to adapt and use our tools. Then Nullsquid can run the kiwi farms from his pelagic server host.

Is it JOLLY and CANDY LIKE?

Don't forget crows. They figured out economics, religious warfare, and the concept of volumetric displacement, all with a brain the size of a peanut. Imagine what they could achieve if they evolved a brain as big as ours.

I wouldn't push the button, though. I like being here to watch.

 

[L50LasPak]

I'd push it eventually. What comes after us doesn't concern me anymore, I'd still do it just out of spite. If we end up being the best this planet can do then I am not impressed.

 

[Mariposa Electrique]

There was a film like this starring James Marsden and Cameron Diaz

 

[Had]

 

[Penis Drager]

I wouldn't because suicide's for faggots.

 

[Niggernerd]

I'd poop on it to let others know it belongs to me.

 

[Hot Daddy Hard Nipples]

Fuck the raccoons.

 

[garakfan69]

Elephants are fat though

 

[scathefire]

Lol, no. It's immoral to kill everyone on the planet for no reason, I thought that much was obvious.

I fucking hate that this actually made me reconsider pushing the button.

 

[Lucky Strike Salesman]

I fucking hate that this actually made me decided not to push the button.

the button is a deceptive thing

what happens to all the nuclear reactors and factories with tons of chemical and biological hazards? they just rot and kill off a majority of the planet's ecosystem

how would it help the planet to basically ramp up pollution by 100
